Answer 1

Try to change your select query like

Dim sqlQuery As String = "SELECT * from hr_record WHERE Emplid='" & txt1.Text & "'"

Note:- Cannot use code like that in Page_Load.Try to make one Function and call that function from Page_Load and always use Parameterized query.

Updated answer:

Page_Load

 Protected Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
 DataBind()
 End Sub

Outside Method:

Public Sub DataBind()
Dim sConnection As String = "server=(local);uid=sa;pwd=PassWord;database=DatabaseName"
    Using Con As New MySqlConnection(sConnection)
        Con.Open()
        Using Com As New MySqlCommand("SELECT * from hr_record WHERE Emplid='"txt1.Text
        "'", Con)
            Using RDR = Com.ExecuteReader()
                If RDR.HasRows Then
                    Do While RDR.Read
                    txt1.Text = RDR.Item("Emplid").ToString()
                    TextBox1.Text = RDR.Item("Nama").ToString()
                    TextBox2.Text = RDR.Item("DeptDesc").ToString()
                    Loop
                End If
            End Using
        End Using
        Con.Close()
    End Using
End Sub

Note:Try to implement your logic like that and also modified as per your requirements.

Hope it works.

You try to get Emplid in page load,but it's still nothing you should use button to check if Emplid exist
